Hi Camille, I tryed to post what it was like to life with a 'druggie' but this site wouldn't take my post, it could of been to long or they just don't want anything about 'drugs' on this site, you can E-mail me at yellmouth@adelphia.net, Thanks anyway, Pegi

Hi, Pegi and welcome. I really doubt that bellaonline wouldn't accept your post, because they have moderators that determine if the substance is inappropriate, offensive or against the rules and tell the poster. I think you are probably correct when you said that it was "too long". There is absolutely nothing wrong with that, except that the form you were using will "no be longer available or valid". I have had that happen to me a number of times, when I really got into what I was saying and typed quite awhile. <img src="/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

It is very frustrating to TRY to submit what you've written and continue only to find everything cocmpletely erased. Most everyone here has lost an entry or two. <img src="/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> But, I'll tell you what I learned to do so that I don't lose what I've typed. Once I finish, before I even CONTINUE to "preview reply", I go up to EDIT and copy everything I just typed. That is just in case when I hit continue, the answer is "the form you have submitted is no longer valid".

If that happens, then I just "paste" it back into the reply box and then CONTINUE (submit). That is one way to beat the "time out error". I am going to do it now since this is such a long post and I hope that it works! Try again, Pegi, there are all kinds of people on this site. There is a pretty cool group working on the 12 step program site, too. I've even stopped in a few times because I have 2nd hand experience from years of helping with my brother.

As always, may God bless you and continue to give you strength and healing. Hope to hear from you again! <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

my 38yr old is a crack and herion user amoung other drugs she also prostitutes to support her habit and is living with the aids virus drugs have taken my daughter to a place of heartaches im watching my daughter kill herself, i worry about all the time, i will never turn her away i hate what she does but i love her

Hello Rosie:
I empathise care and feel for you!If you see my profile and wish to visit my web page you can see why I can relate, I also wrote a song for survivor sex workers and there pain.
That will be under the category my songs or music.
I would like to mention Rosie, that getting the support for yourself is essential and healthier for your being. How to protect your self from your daughters dis-eases. While still loving her. Also is she getting the health info she needs? EX: protection from diseases, like hep "C" "B" and "A" and visiting the health nurses. You can get a listing or usually the needle exchange can help with those answer or the crisis line. You can gently say to your daughter if this is what you are chosing to do, please get educated on your choices. When your ready to go to detox, I will be hear for you and know that I love you. But it hurts to see you like this. Then hand her some phamplets on educating her of the diseases and protection devices pther wise she may receive some info from othe sources that will cause greater harm. I have had to say good bye as A.I.Ds have taken many of the women I have known. However I also know a woman who live with H.I.V and has started her own organization, is off the streets and is a spokes woman for the voices who cannot at this time. Such as your daughter! (Also the cycle of spreading the disease of H.I.V can be prevented, and your daughter sounds like she morally would wish to not spread it any farther)
When in active addiction, it is not your daugher (the real soul is burried), (I speak from experience of being a survivor of the streets, abuse and addictions)Over 30 years of surviving my un healthy life styles.
I feel your pain however; she has to make her decisions, and your role needs to change as well. How ever harsh that may seem to you. ::::sending you a cyber tissue:::::or I should say a box of them. This is not a time to turn to religion either )or anything but, the facts), you need to paddle your self to shore as does she. Get some education on what is happening and also where you and your family fits into this. Each has a responsibility. Mostly this is a fight your daughter needs to find the voice inside to help her. That is when the true battle begins...after she is clean! It is never about the addiction.....it is why it started in the first place. What are her demons? Only she knows this.
Wishing you much desire to change your self and my arms are around your daughter and her active using mind at the moment.
